The current form of A Call To Duty Roleplaying has evolved greatly since its original inception in 1995. Once a
fledgling organization on a private online network, ACTDR now
boasts over 300 members and several games in all three of the major
gameplay styles, wrapped into an immersive game that many
players (including players that are members in other online RPGs) hail as The Best On The Net.

A
Call to duty's beginnings were with Star Trek: A Call To Duty,
which was formed out of its
parent organization, Virtual Trek (vTrek). vTrek was founded in
May of 1995 on the since-discontinued proprietary content area
of The Microsoft Network (MSN). Its co-founders were Chad
Morrett and James Perry. During the course of its operation from
1995 through 1997, vTrek operated in two gameplay styles: The
5th Fleet, a chat-based group akin to ACTD's Chat Division, and
The 7th Fleet, akin to ACTD's Newsgroup Division. At its height,
vTrek boasted 100+ members across 10 ships, and a special-event
Klingon ship.
